Ok, so to the left we have a basic webpage totaly empty. See for yourself save it in your text editor as an HTML document, open it with your browser, it's blank.

Now between <BODY> and </BODY> Type "The Quick Brown Fox Jumped Over The Lazy Dog"
The Quick Brown Fox Jumped Over The Lazy Dog
Not too bad, not too good either.
Lets spice it up change <BODY> to
<BODY bgcolor="blue" text="red"> (save and reload) look the background is Blue and the text is Red
The Quick Brown Fox Jumped Over The Lazy Dog
Lets learn some more HTML shall We? Type <B>BOLD Text</B>
BOLD Text

Next <I>Italics</I>
Italics

<U>Underline</U>
Underline

Multiples <B><I><U>Cool Text</U></I></B>
Cool Text

Just make sure you close them in the correct order <> Open first </> close last.

Lets talk about white space type:
"High


Low"
Now Lets see what it looks like in a web browser
High Low

Bummer. Browsers recognize many spaces and returns as only one space.

So to get a new line we'll use <BR> type: High<BR>Low<BR><BR>Very Low
High
Low

Very Low

<P> is simmilar to <BR> exept you can use only one at a time and it returns two lines instead of just one


If you look at some pages they have large text headers lets make our own
<H1>Level 1 Header</H1>
<H2>Level 2 Header</H2>
<H3>Level 3 Header</H3>
<H4>Level 4 Header</H4>
<H5>Level 5 Header</H5>
<H6>Level 6 Header</H6>

Level 1 Header

Level 2 Header

Level 3 Header

Level 4 Header

Level 5 Header
Level 6 Header
With headers the <H#> and </H#> both retun new lines so to change text size in a paragraph with <H#> headers would not look very good

To change the properties of text we use the <FONT> command.
Type <FONT size=5>Size Five Fonts</FONT>
Size Five Fonts
<FONT size=#> can be set to -2 -1 1 2 3 4 5 6 +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 or +6

Type <FONT color=lime>Green Is Cool</FONT>
Green Is Cool

Here's a hard one <FONT face="comic sans ms">Cool Dude</FONT>
Cool Dude
The problem wiht <FONT face="..."> is that for it to work the viewer must have that font on their computer. There is a way to fix this problem type: <FONT face="creepy,arail">Creepy is a Scarry Font</FONT>
Creepy is a Scarry Font
If you have creepy you will see it, if not you will see Arail.

Now Let's Mix!! Since size= color= and face= are all attributes of <FONT> we can use them at the same time.
Type: <FONT size=+1 color=olive face="valium,arial">are you afraid of the dark</FONT>
are you afraid of the dark
Dig? If you don't have valium font click here.

To create a horizonal line simply type <HR>


You can ajust the properties <HR> type: <HR width=50 size=9> <HR width=70%> <HR width=90% height=10 noshade> <HR width=200 align=right>
